Title: Crane reference material?
Post by: Firestar on February 14, 2010, 03:33:44

Hi everyone, I've seen some blueprints on this forum occasionally posted, but I've never seen any crane blueprints or materials? A lot of ships have cranes, so does anyone know of any blueprints or anything like that for them that some of us may be able to look off of?

Here's a harbour crane, standing at the Mammoet terminal in Rotterdam (near the barrel-alike building).  Would be good to have it in SS as a player object.

I'd like a HIAB, especially if you had to shift the engine into neutral and set the RPM...
